Cut your first designer paper as follows. One- piece at 6.25" x 2.5" and three pieces at 2.5" x 3.5".

Cut your second designer paper as follows. Six pieces at 2.5" x 2.5".

Score the 1" x 4.75" pieces 1" on each end.

Score the 6.5" x 12" card stock on the long side side at 2.75", 5.5", 8.25", and 11".

Note: If you have a 6" score board as I do turn your paper and score 1" and 3.75" on this side.

This is how the card stock pieces should look.

Note: I folded the score lines some so you can see them better.

Turn the 6.5" x 12 piece f card stock so you have the short end on your score board. Score at 2.75".

Note: If you have a 6" score board, flip your paper so the scored line is at the bottom and close to the side of the score board. Score the top section at 2.75" down to meet the other 2.75" score line.

Cut your 4 score lines that are 2.75" long down to the 12" score line.

This is how it should look.

Cut the 1" piece at a slight angle, up to the cut line making a tab as shown.

This is how it should look.

Using your bone folder, go ahead and fold and give a crease on the lines that are partly cut and partly scored. This makes it easier to tell where to place your designer papers.

Using your adhesive runner, place adhesive on the backs of your papers. You will place it on the inside. You will use the 6.25" x 2.5" piece and 3 of the 2.5" x 2.5 pieces. If your design for the 2.5" x 2.5" pieces have a design you want to be upright when finished, then place them on with the print upside down. When you fold the card they will be hanging down and then be in the right direction.

I did it wrong here. My print was upside down. I replaced them when my card was put together.

This is where the papers should be placed.

Now place the rest of your designer papers and white card stock on the outside of your card. The white card stock is for writing a note to the person you are sending the card to.

Turn your card back over to the inside.

Score the tab over to form a crease.

Add either Score Tape or ATG runner adhesive to the tab. Make sure you cover it well as you need a strong hold.

Now fold over the other side to line the corner up with the corner of the tab. Hold the card so it will go on straight as the next 2 photos show.

Press the seam down rubbing to make sure the adhesive is firmly in place.

Now with the bone folder, crease the other corner across from the tab. Open and fold the card so the other corner that you have not creased, is now flat.

Fold back the flaps and crease lightly. Do one at a time until all 3 are done as the next two photos show.

Now open your card up. This is how it should look right now.

Now crease the 1" score lines on the 1" x 4.75" pieces of card stock.

You need them to look like this.

Place Score Tape on the ends of each of these pieces. These are your tabs for placing them inside your card.

Remove the backing from the Score Tape. Holding the one side against your hand so it won't stick to the card, place the tab towards the back of the card on the side so that the longer piece will be towards the middle of the card. The tab needs to be even with the lid of the card.

This is how it should look.

Here is another view. Hopefully, you can see the placement of the tab.

Now do the same thing with the other piece but place it facing the front of the card as shown.

This is how it should look on the inside.

Now lay flat and crease the corners so the card will move easily when you need to fold it to mail it.

Move the card so you have the other 2 corners and crease them.

Now you are ready to decorate your card.

I chose and colored several digis from Robyn's Fetish as I was not sure which I would want to use. The ones pictured are "Valentine Kids set" or "Lucy Valentine Girl and Randy Valentine Boy," "I Heart U," "Bee Mine," "It's Bearly Luv," "Luv Bear," "Pussy Cat Luv," and "I Have A Crush on You." You can find them all in the Robyn's Fetish store here http://robynsfetish.com/shop .

Note: You see several other items here. All are good for this card except the large hearts. They were too big.

Cut the acetate at 1/8" by 3.5" and 1/8" x 3".

Using a 3" x 3" piece of paper or sticky note lay out your design to give you an idea of what and how you want your decorations placed inside your card.

Using a glue dot place it on the end of a piece of acetate folding it over onto itself so it won't stick out. Now place the glue dot on the back of the tiny piece you want to move around on your card.

This is how it should look.

Now starting at the back of your card, place your decorations (hearts) on your card as shown. I used ATG adhesive on the bottoms about 1/3- 1/2" on the backs of the die cuts and digis used. You glue them to the front of the inside sections.

As you place your dies and digis on your card, make sure that they do not stick out or above the edges of the card. You can fold your card as you work to see how it looks folded. If it looks good folded, it will also look good opened in most cases.

Place the acetate pieces onto the card on the back of the inside pieces with a glue dot.

You can add 2- 5 of these tiny dies or digis. Make sure they are not over 1" in size. 1/2" works best.

About Me

I am the only sister of 4 children. I am the oldest. I had to learn to tease and take being teased out of self defense. I was a very seriuos child. I was born in KY. Ilived in GA 23 years. I have a cat named Mittens.

"Hello Everyone Welcome!"

I love to scrap and make cards. I also paint in oil, pastel, and watercolor. Art in some form has always been a part of my life since I was coloring in a coloring book and playing with play dough. Thanks to Mom we always had some kind of dough to play with, mostly homemade. My 3 brothers and I loved it! In the 5th grade I had a teacher who liked art and opened up crafts to me. Then at an action an oil painting kit was in a box of things my Dad wanted. Oh how I loved it! Talking about being happy! My first oil painting in the 8th grade with Mrs. Hughes was of a flamingo. Idid a Painted Bunting-bird in the 9th grade. My folks got a divorce then and I stopped drawing and painting. Divorces do hurt kids! I started babysitting when 16 years old and started drawing and doing crafts with the children I kept. it brought me great joy. I met a wonderful man in 1995 and married him in 1996. He encouraged me to take painting lessons. Thanks Lloyd for a wonderful gift. In 1999 my husband died. I still miss him. I started scrapbooking and card making in 2003. I have learned a lot but know there is much, much more out there to learn. every day I learn something new. Thanks to all who have taught me along the way wether you know it or not. Edwina Brown
